https://ift.tt/06KAVbT Broken Wheel #DailyPhoto #Photography 2025365 May 17, 2025. Already shared on Mastodon but for everyone else, here's what happened to my bikepacking test run. It may have just been an over-inflated tire (I had issues with that with the same rim in 2023) or overloaded or both. In any case, the rim is done and I'm looking at plan B.

Andrea bought a few things, including some stuff from he zoo that is the Hudson's Bay closing out fire sale. I didn't buy anything but just moped about a bit. Trying to stay positive.
